Ruolo della Risonanza Magnetica funzionale nel panorama delle tecniche RM "avanzate".

Ipofisi

2012

Considerata l'elevata complessità anato-funzionale e le ridotte dimensioni delle strutture presenti nella regione sellare e ixuta-sellare, la parte introduttiva dell'intervento sarà obbligatoriamente dedicata a brevi richiami di fisiologia dell'asse ipotalamo-ipofisario, alla diagnostica di laboratorio (talvolta erroneamente considerata “di supporto” alla diagnostica per immagini) e all'anatomia radiologica; ciò consentirà di meglio comprendere la necessità di un assoluto rigore nei protocolli d'esame utilizzati per ottenere immagini di elevata affidabilità diagnostica. Sarà dato ampio spazio ai protocolli di studio e saranno discusse le principali indicazioni allo studio di tali dis…

Liver stiffness quantification in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis: comparison of shear wave elastography and transient elastography with …

2019

Purpose: To assess the accuracy of liver stiffness quantification in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) using shear wave elastography (SWE) in comparison with transient elastography (TE). Methods and Materials: This is a prospective study performed in a single institution, including 49 patients with histological diagnosis of NASH. The stiffness of the right liver lobe was measured on the same day with two techniques: TE (FibroScan, Echosens), and SWE (RS80A ultrasound system, Samsung Medison). In the SWE evaluation, 11 patients were excluded due to more than 75% measurements fails. Receiver operating curves (ROC), areas under the ROC (AUROC) and 95% confidence intervals (CI)…

Liver stiffness quantification in biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients using shear wave elastography in comparison with transient …

2021

Purpose: This study prospectively assessed the performance of liver stiffness measurements using point shear-wave elastography (p-SWE) in comparison with transient elastography (TE) in patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods: Fifty-six consecutive adult patients with a histological diagnosis of NAFLD prospectively underwent TE and p-SWE on the same day. The median of 10 measurements (SWE-10), the first five (SWE-5), and the first three (SWE-3) measurements were analyzed for p-SWE. Liver biopsy was considered as the reference standard for liver fibrosis grade. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and areas under the ROC curves (AUROCs) were cal…

Enfermedad hepática grasa no alcohólica en la obesidad morbida:Implicaciones patogénicas y diagnosticas

2015

La Enfermedad Hepática Grasa No Alcohólica (EGHNA) se encuentra asociada a la obesidad en sus distintas fases y en especial a la forma de Obesidad Mórbida (OM) con IMC superior a 40. El diagnóstico de confirmación de la EHGNA, se realiza mediante estudio histológico de tejido hepático, pero cada vez más se plantea la búsqueda de métodos no invasivos como forma alternativa de diagnóstico en pacientes tanto normopeso como en portadores de obesidad. Entre estos nuevos sistemas de diagnóstico no invasivo se encuentran: modelos matemáticos (Fibrotest, Fibroscure, ELF, APRI, etc ), la elastografia impulsacional (Fibroscan®) y el estudio en sangre periférica de biomarcadores con implicaciones, tod…

Diagnosi di osteonecrosi mediante WB-MRI in paziente con Linfoma di Hodgkin resistente trattato con BEACOPP: Case Report.

2016

Hodgkin's lymphoma is a very common haematological neoplasm with high possibilities of response to treatment. On the other hand, therapies are often responsible for clinically relevant complications. Among these is osteonecrosis, generally determined by the high dosages of corticosteroids included in the chemotherapeutic protocols, which lead to bone ischemia through multifactorial mechanisms such as hypercoagulability and increase of intraosseous pressure due to hyperplasia of the adipose component. We report the case of a 29-year-old man with resistant Hodgkin's lymphoma undergoing chemotherapy which determined the appearance of multifocal osteonecrosis detected by Magnetic Resonance whol…
